This is a night to remember. Democrats are in disarray. Obamacare is in utter chaos. Drudge reads this way:
Healthcare.gov Refers Users to Uncertified Navigators and Assisters…
Launch spawns over 700 cyber-squatters…
Feds instruct BLUE CROSS/BLUE SHIELD not to reveal sign-up numbers…
Gov’t invokes ‘privacy’ to shield public employees while snooping on rest…
CBSNEWS: Website Underestimates Cost of Insurance…
‘Alpha teams’ formed to address problems…
Millions of Americans Losing Health Plans…
Senate Dems Up For Re-Election To Back Mandate Delay…
With the key story being
OBAMACARE MANDATE ‘MAY BE DELAYED’
You know- the delay the GOP sought. You’ll also remember how Ted Cruz and the GOP were savaged for seeking this.
The other really satisfying story is the White House denying what Dick Durbin said:
Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) alleged this weekend that a top House Republican leader told President Barack Obama, “I cannot even stand to look at you” during negotiations over the government shutdown.
Good golly, things are really, really bad when Jay Carney denies it.
Oh heck, let’s pile on. Obama has lost Saudi and was caught tapping Angela Merkel’s personal cell phone.
Did I mention that 16 million Americans are losing their health care plans?
This is quite a night. The best thing you can do is… well, this:
Sit back and enjoy it.
This has been a public service message from Flopping Aces. Always looking out for you.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
We’ve been ALL OVER the Obamacare disaster on Common Cents….

A lone blogger and one blog post can be very powerful.
Note this little thing…..it keeps growing and growing….
What Ted Cruz did made sense as we now see when Dmes do it.
Same with Mike Lee of Utah who was being pilloried by the liberal media until today.
One lefty writer even highlighted all the ”moderate” people of Utah who want him to change…..LOL!
But now it looks like Obama may have DEMOCRATS in the Legislative Branch calling for his ObamaCare baby to be delayed!
I would really be surprised if Obama decides to delay any of the bill, especially after the fight and government closure where that was offered by the House as part of a “deal”. The chief narcissist cannot admit fault or wrongdoing… a delay would entail an admission, and he doesn’t dare throw any of his appointees under the bus at this point for fear that they would turn on him.
Obamacare may prove to be his undoing in a very interesting and unexpected way.
Very concerned that this creature in office will lose the fight over his baby and if that should be the case how vindictive will he be towards WTP and the country? He has been shown to be a ‘little off his rocker’ and not of this world. Just how will he (or that matter, ValJar) plan to punish us for squashing the cockroach that is obomba?
NO way does this turd launch in pieces now!! 0-blama said NO and the government shut down!! Now they agree with Republicans that there should be a delay?? Obamacare continues to be the gift that keeps on giving to Republicans (see historic take back of the House in 2010) and by the time the realization by America that this dog won’t hunt, they have lost their health insurance, jobs, and their messiah 2014 election cycle begins.
The ranting and whining against the ACA will continue, but it will still take effect on January 1 of 2014. Due to the problems with the enrollment website, we’ll probably see the Obama Administration agree to some small piece of legislation that pushes back the non-enrollment penalties for 6 months or possibly even a year. That will be the only movement needed to calm most people down and get them enrolled in an insurance plan.
I have a simple question: If there is no delay of obamacare, and the people can’t sign up for it, and the private insurance companies have cancelled millions of people’s policies, will the obama administration pick up the medical tab for the ones who didn’t sign up for obamacare, lost their private insurance, and are having medical bills pile up?
Will China loan him more money to pay for obamacare until the web site allows people to sign up? When not enough people sign up to pay the expenses, will China loan obama more money to keep obamacare running?
@Smorgasbord:
I smell a bailout coming
Not a bailout Dr., a takeover.
@drjohn: #8
Where will the bailout come from? Print more money, borrow more money, perform some kind of magic trick? You can’t bail out a boat by bailing the water from one part of it to another part.
Black Beans & Rice stirs the plot again…
TODAY the DEMOCRATS found a way to slip in the blame on the REPUBLICANS, FOR THE SHUTDOWN,wich they didn”t do,
THEY COVER THEIR MASTER WHO DID THE SHUTDOWN,
THE REPUBLICANS never wanted the shut down,
“Night to remember” indeed, DrJ, and here’s a quote to remember:
Author Peter Schweizer on his book Extortion, . . . “the top Republican financiers in 2012 were all subject to DOJ criminal charges. It’s shocking really unlike anything we’ve ever seen. — The top five positions at the DOJ beginning with Eric Holder were all campaign bundlers for the Obama Campaign. These Obama fund raisers were raising money to put Obama into power, and now are making decisions about who they are going to prosecute and who they’re not going to prosecute — melding of the DOJ and the campaign apparatus of the OBAMA CAMPAIGN.”
We’ve witnessed the same abuse from the IRS and NSA.
The deception, hate, vindictiveness, decay and degeneration, into which taxpayers and voters have allowed this White House to descend may not be surprising to some of us, but the stench should finally become obvious to a majority.
Just three weeks ago Obamacare was unquestioned “settled” law by almost every Democrat who weighed in.
Now, not so much.
Today Rush claimed that only taxpayers who expect a refund can be FORCED to pay the ObamaCare non-compliance penalty.
I wonder.
But I can see Obama/Holder only going after folks who have no record ….. of voting Democrat.
IT’S STARTING TO LOOK LIKE NO NOT CHRISMAS YET,
but to look like THE PEOPLE ARE SICK AND TIRED,
to be told they are punish and must pay a penalty, FOR OBAMACARE,
OBAMA KEEP ON AND ON PUNISHING THE AMERICANS,
PUNISHING THE MILITARY, FIRING THE COMMANDERS,
HE HATE AMERICA SO MUCH THAT HE IS TRANSPARENT ABOUT PUNISHING
NOW FORCING THE PEOPLE INTO THAT OBAMACARE,
EVEN THAT THE PEOPLE WON’T BE ABLE TO PAY, FOR WORKING 20 HOURS A WEEK,
HE WANT THE YOUNG TO PAY, HELL THEY STILL DEPEND ON THEIR PARENTS,
HOW CAN THEY PAY,
@james Raider: #13
Just like the human nose gets used to a really bad smell so that you don’t notice it any more, once the people get used to getting their free stuff, they don’t smell the stink any more.
Talk about ”getting used to free stuff….”
Washington State had a special glitch on its own ObamaCare marketplace site.
It was calculating people’s tax credits too high.
So, 8,000 folks signed up, thinking O-care was nearly free or actually free in their cases.
OOPS!
Suckers!
Now, how many of these people will pay the ridiculously high premiums they actually will be faced with?
Probably none of them.
See it here:

No wonder Washington state looked like lots of folks were signing up.
once they sign, there is no turning back,
the sharks are waiting to eat ,
When the Dem’s finally succumb to reality, and in desperation call for exactly the same thing the House Republicans called for, the public will know who were the real “terrorists” and “hostage takers” who caused the government shut down. The American public are not as dumb as Democrats think they are.
This should bode very well for Republicans in the 2014 elections, but don’t count out the asinine stupidity of the progressive establishment “leadership” and their ability to continue to drive away voters by driving away Conservatives, and trying to be Democrat-lite.
